Overview

Stats have long been the best friend of the cricket fan. All the way back to 1864, in fact, when the first edition of annual stats bible Wisden Cricketers’ Almanack was published. As time has passed and tastes have changed, cricket lovers have wanted more than just their yearly serving of numbers, and the annual Cricket Australia Official Season Guide caters for the needs of the modern-day fan. The book has more than 400 player profiles, a full fixture, venue information, a season preview, the views of stars such as Australian captain Ricky Ponting, and comprehensive coverage of the women’s game. And stats lovers, fear not. The guide is jam-packed with more stats than ever before on Australia, its opponents for the year ahead, and all the interstate teams (men and women).
